I am so surprised no one has suggested the logical extension of “stand your ground” is that had trayvon had a gun, he would still be alive, or something.

And the Peter Wehner who excused the invasion and destruction of Iraq by lying and saying that Iraq was “divided, traumatized, and collapsing” before we went in there and divided , traumatized, and collapsed the shit out of it.

and so Weiner Wehner justifies rape by calling his target a whore first. As if.

I believe this, a public discussion of the differences similarities of Islamic and Hebrew rituals, is what little tits wants to avoid.

Chutzpah doing this. I guess she didn’t get a chance to talk with adults, first.

DHS picks up the tab for training and equipment and the temptation to inappropriately use all the those new toys is very great.

Correction.

The 99% pick up the tab, not DHS.

You know, it seems too easy to me.

Either tax the rich or tax the poor and elderly. Who can afford it, the rich or the poor?

Seems like someone way smarter than me can come up with a really simple bumper sticker.

IANAL – however, if the front door is considered part of the fire escape plan then locking the front door with customers inside might be a violation, just suggestin’

This is just plain stupidity even from an economic standpoint.

You think the price of farm goods has increased recently? Just wait.

Of course, the people who implemented the law are the same ones who cleaned out the gun shops when they heard that Russia invaded Georgia.

I hope we are using what is happening in Libya as at least a loose template for what might happen in Pakistan should we “invade”.

Only difference? They have nukes.

Not really a fan of violence, but, according to Ross, if we knee-cap him, even if innocent, then other columnists will know that writing such poop will result in them walking crooked? Too?

Of course Obama and the GOP especially Ron Paul don’t think the government should restrict free trade.

Of course we all want “free trade”, as long as it is tilted in our favor. What they are actually advocating is not “free trade” or trade free of all constraints but government intervention virtually guaranteeing reducing the competitiveness of American corporations.

Because our way different health-care systems as well as retirements simply comparing pay differences is false. China subsidizes solar in many different ways that all add up to an insurmountable advantage for China products.

Having a single payer health care plan would, among other issues, actually tend to level the cost playing field, but, the US seems to be locked into a death spiral costly health care system.

On the plane over there this morning, he told reporters that we just need to kill 10 or 20 leaders of al Qaeda and we will “strategically defeat” al Qaeda. (h/t Spencer)

There. Fixed that.

All prison conversations are taped, to make sure inmates aren’t doing deals on the inside.

Oh darn. I knew that.

It is the monitoring that seems pretty expensive. Would the prison have turned the tapes over to the DA only for interpretation or would the tapes have been sent to a number receivers, including the defense? or, were the tapes requested by someone?

Sorry to be so ignorant but the intel part of me is intrigued.

Let’s posit that the woman was put up to it by persons with a vested interest in removing DSK from the IMF and/or the race to replace Sarkozy.

Jeeze, ya think? :-) Victory for them. They got what they wanted, even to the removal of a potential blackmailer.

Also, bmaz, is it normal to wiretap a person’s telephone in that manner, and, not just as to contact information but content?
